This program brings MacOS-like or Gnome-like application switching to Windows. Use alt + tab to select the active app (not window) and alt + ~ to switch between windows of the active app. Key bindings are customizable.
Tested on Windows 10 and Windows 11.
Get the archive from the release page.
x86_64 and ARM64 (AArch64) architectures are available. Please note that I was not able to test the ARM64 one myself.
Run the AltAppSwitcher.exe (preferably as an administator).
Close the application using CloseAltAppSwitcher.bat file.
Run AddToStartup.bat to add AltAppSwitcher to Windows startup apps.
Run RemoveFromStartup.bat to revert this.
The configuration file, AltAppSwitcherConfig.txt lets you change key bindings, theme, scale and mouse support. App restart is required for the changes to take effect.
- Alt tab popup is behind start menu.
- On some releases, .exe might be flagged as malicious by Windows Defender. This is a false positive (detection relies on machine learning).
This is a C project relying on C standard library and Windows API. I'm using Clang (mingw) and VS Code / VS Codium.
